Fan Placement Question

tiger2626 · Feb 24, 2015

Hi, my name is Zach and I just had a question about fan placement. The picture is how I currently have my fans set up (they are Antec TrueQuiet 120's and 140's) and I was wondering if the bottom mounted 120 would/is affecting the airflow of the 2 140's in the front.
Thanks for the answers,
Zach

The bottom mounted fan is a good idea because all your exhaust is higher up in the case, so it will blow that air up to the exhaust fans.

No, in fact it may improve airflow by pushing cool air over the mobo instead of it just going strait out the back.

That is exactly how i would do it this should put a slightly possitive air pressure in your case also which will help controle dust

In this configuration , the bottom fan isn't needed.

I don't think the bottom fan will hurt anything, but it would probably do more good in a case side position (if you have one) blowing some ambient temp air towards the graphic card(s).

Thank you all for the great answers, I will indeed keep the bottom fan there!
